Preview

The Marketa Stadium in Prague plays host to rounds five and six of this season's revised Grand Prix series.

Freddie Lindgren has finished on the rostrum in all four rounds this season and his consistency on the world stage was duly rewarded with an impressive victory in Gorzow last week.

Despite his Polish league form being under-par by his usual high standards, the Swede has roared seven points clear in the standings and now looks the chief threat to Bartosz Zmarzlik for top honours.

Prague's unique circuit has often proved a leveller over the years, however, and a small each-way play on Leon Madsen could pay dividends.

The Dane enjoyed a fruitful time in his first full-time Grand Prix series last year, winning three of the ten rounds and falling just two points short of the gold medal.

He currently occupies fifth in the standings but reached both finals in Gorzow last weekend and is starting to rekindle his best form.

Madsen top-scored with a 13-point haul for Czestochowa in the Polish Extraliga in midweek and the return to Prague – an event in which he finished a close second last season – should hold no fears.

An improved display from Emil Sayfutdinov would not surprise although Jason Doyle could prove the main danger.

Victorious here in 2016 and 2017, the Aussie ace has shrugged off his early-season struggles and is capable of a bold show with his confidence restored.
